Hearty chili and cornbread menu
Roberto Caruso
Tonight, we’re staying cozy with a hearty chili menu, the perfect cure for the cold-weather blues. Our super-fast stovetop recipe has all the signature goods, including a beefy tomato base, beans, cheese and spices. So this week, invite over a few friends, add a basket of cornbread muffins to the table, a six-pack of beer, and warm up with a bowl (or two) of hearty chili.
Side
Classic cornbread
With Southwestern and Tex-mex variations, you can find a style to suit everyone's taste. Keep it classic in a loaf pan, make them into muffins, or get an old-fashioned look by using a cast iron skillet.
